Masques & Phases The mimus, in the Greco-Roman empire, stereotyped its figures for a period, since of course they did not change suddenly or greatly.

Civilization and Beyond Learning from History There are window seats painted to imitate marble, with the Roman or Greco-Roman ornaments painted green to represent bronze. Illustrated History of Furniture From the Earliest to the Present Time In Italy the literature of antiquity, and Greco-Roman art revived, but the Renaissance was not entirely literary. The Shadow of the Cathedral The Greco-Roman Paganism was, at this time, far more powerful than Druidism in Gaul, and yet more lukewarm and destitute of all religious vitality. A Popular History of France from the Earliest Times, Volume 1 No previous tradition, unless it was the genius of Greek or Greco-Roman antiquity, supplied Michelangelo with the motive force for this prentice-piece in sculpture. The Life of Michelangelo Buonarroti It had to go to school to Greco-Roman civilization; it also borrowed rather than evolved its culture. Democracy and Education: an introduction to the philosophy of education The ideas which the sect cherished were popular in a certain part of Greco-Roman society, which, sated with the luxury of the age, turned to the ascetic life and to the pursuit of mysticism. Josephus An entirely proper Greco-Roman academy plaster bust, with a proper nose, and proper mouth, and a round chin, and an expression of the most solemn reverence; always, of course, of a classical description. Val d'Arno Hence, we have certain complex structures, buildings of gradation and transition, which may be Roman at the base, Gothic in the middle, and Greco-Roman at the top. Seeing Europe with Famous Authors, Volume 3 France and the Netherlands, Part 1 Even a modern like l'Occaso, who describes the Castrovillari region in a conscientious fashion, leaps directly from Greco-Roman events into those of the Normans. Old Calabria The Greco-Roman world, for example, was becoming ripe for Christianity before Christianity finally appeared and became triumphant.

Egypt (La Mort de Philae) And this evil legacy from Greco-Roman days has been augmented by the more recent teachings of Jesuitry and the Catholic theory of "peccato veniale." Old Calabria Early Christianity, as we have already seen, found the family life of the Greco-Roman world demoralized.

History of Phoenicia A richer and more fruitful vein was discovered in expanding and completing the Greco-Roman mythology. The Civilisation of the Renaissance in Italy The whole trend of the narrative and the purpose must have been changed when he came to present the events for a Greco-Roman audience. Josephus The Greco-Roman ideas of fate and nemesis, which dominate the shorter account of the king's life in the Wars, are still the underlying motives. Josephus In his desire to impress the Greco-Roman reader, he dates an event by the Macedonian as well as the Jewish month, whenever he knows it, i.e. when he found it in his source. Josephus As we have seen in the Wars, he was in topography as in other things under the influence of Greco-Roman models. Josephus One thing is certain: epochs far above our own in the sense of beauty—the Renaissance and the Greco-Roman world—could not dispense with this form of poetry. The Civilisation of the Renaissance in Italy Cicero had said a hundred years earlier, that it was legitimate to lie in narratives; and this was the characteristic outlook of the Greco-Roman writers. Josephus When he wrote the Antiquities, his mind was already molded in Greco-Roman form, and where he seeks to glorify, he not seldom contrives to degrade. Josephus |
